I wasn't able to attend the webcast, I was at class, but thanks to Twitter, I was able to learn some things that were said.

Particularly interesting "tweets" from social media expert Doug Haslam, who was broadcasting bits and pieces from the CSM webcast:

Mark Jurkowitz: new media models rushing to fill the void left by shrinking print reporting staffCan anyone but NYT& WaPo afford to break the big stories? JurkowitzEllen Hume of MIT: New journalism means the old media aren't the only ones w/ reporting power.Hume: if journalist is popular there's something wrong.Douglas K. Smith: median age of ABC News is 61. Enterprise model still works but shrinking.Jurkowitz: broadcast tv still has a significant role. it's changing but still bigQ: will newspapers go away? Jurkowitz: print will change become more niche. remeber gulf war 1 as end of paper 1stEllen Hume is big on participatory journalism.Ellen Hume: face to face is irreplaceable. use tech but continue to be a journalistJurkowitz: dangers of people sticking with news that fits their world view
